That is why we continue to invest more in R&D than any other travel technology provider which reinforces our commitment to providing unmatched technology supported by the richest content to serve the needs of business travelers today and tomorrow.”

The cytric solution addresses CWT’s goal to enrich the business travel experience with extensive travel options offered via theAmadeus Travel Platform, including air, hotel and rail content.
